Alex McClintock Manny Pacquiao is retiring. He was a big part of the reason I fell in love with boxing. An absolute monster and the source of some of my best memories in the sport. Thank you my dude.

Ricky Perez I still say he beat Mayweather! Had to chase him down at American Airlines arena to get him to sign for a fight and then had to chase him around the ring to get him to mix it up, best welterweight ever!
